Professional delivery and installation is available for every product we sell. We would be happy to coordinate delivery and installation for you.

Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

Five star in my book

JaniM 10/23/2023

I was getting ready to move into a senior apartment complex which had no central air. If I wanted an air conditioner it had to have certain specifications. It could not be a window unit it had to be through the wall or a portable unit. I opted for through the wall but was having difficulty finding something with the sleep requirements that was large enough to accommodate my square footage. I was ecstatic to find this LG which was perfect for what I needed.

Great Product

jen312 9/17/2023

I bought the unit during the peak of a heat wave as the old one non-LG decided to quit when it was needed the most. Long story short the new unit stood the test of the heat wave well. No regrets.

lgproductsucks 8/22/2023

Loud and built out of cheap materials... the cover for the air filter has been rattling for 2 years and now the plastic tabs that hold the cover closed broke. I have to tape it to keep it shut. I should have gone with Frigidaire instead of this garbage product.

It does as advertised but....

HoHo37 7/6/2023

This ac does what it is supposed to do but does something I find annoying. In energy saving mode the unit will shut down when the temp is reached. Thats good. Less good is that the fan will turn on every 3 or so minutes to check the air. This creates unwanted noise. When cooling is again needed the compressor and fan start again and the cycle is repeated. Why the fan is needed for the sensor to check the ambient air is a mystery to me . Other then that all is well and the unit does a good job of cooling.

Works fine.

JenMatAC 6/10/2023

I wanted more features to pull the air from the outside to cool but considering that avoiding this keeps allergens from entering the inside space and most recently smoke from the Canadian fires I probably made the right choice. I didnt realize that there was even a valve to control the intake of outside air to cool. You learn something new everyday as they say.

Sturdy well designed AC thru the wall unit

DickA 6/1/2023

After about a month of intermittent use the unit is performing up to expectations. Of course the real test is longevity. It remains to be seen if it will still work next cooling season. I hope so.

Exactly What We Expected

Drummerjones 8/1/2022

Weve had this unit for several months and last month our old LG Thru-the-wall unit finally surrendered after 13 years. We installed the LT1216CER just before a long intense hot spell covered our area. We knew of the LG quality and reliability and this unit provides great cooling. We set ours on auto and the unit does the rest. Very pleased.

Extremely Loud

001274 7/6/2022

Our apartment complex replaced all our wall ACs with these things and they are the loudest AC Ive ever encountered to the point I cannot run it when trying to sleep which is wonderful as its often 90+ at night. There is no difference in sound level between the fan speeds. I measured the noise level and it runs at nearly 80 db not 60-65 like the listing claims. All three units in our apartment are that loud. The lights for settings/temp control are also very bright but cannot be turned off. If you are sensitive to light when trying to sleep have fun.
